Coronaviruses are a group of related RNA viruses that cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans and birds, they cause respiratory tract infections that can range from mild to lethal. Mild illnesses in humans include some cases of the common cold (which is also caused by other viruses, predominantly rhinoviruses), while more lethal varieties can cause SARS, MERS, and COVID-19. In cows and pigs they cause diarrhea, while in mice they cause hepatitis and encephalomyelitis.

The paper is about SARS-CoV-2 not about corona viruses per se.

While the top comment was worded in not the best way, I think they meant to say it's not really surprising that SARS-CoV-2 is behaving like other corona viruses.

It seems intuitive to me that this whole thing will not magically end with a single vaccine. There will likely be enough variations that we will be dealing with future strains like we deal with influenza.
